This sweet 2-month-old goat recently visited Dr. O’Bryan after fracturing his metatarsal (one of the bones in his leg). After examining him, Dr. O’Bryan recommended a splint and close monitoring to give that little leg the support it needs to heal.

The good news? Being young and small has its advantages! With his age and excellent healing potential, we’re expecting this little guy to make a full recovery.

For now, it’s all about rest, healing, and keeping that adventurous goat spirit under control!

Heal fast, little one!

Cats are known for their crazy acrobatics as well as narrow escapes, which may be what earned them the erroneous claim of having nine lives. Felines might seem invincible, but they’re not! Take care of their one life as best you can by scheduling regular wellness visits with your vet.

Dogs and cats experience allergies differently than we do: Licking, scratching, hair loss, and other symptoms can all be signs of allergic reactions or skin disease. Sometimes mild changes can signal a growing problem. We can help find the cause and curb the symptoms before they worsen.
